TUSK by Fleetwood Mac


seems to be their most underrated album, a double full of sparkling apertifs and soothing good-night-kisses

when Fleetwood Mac already had ruled a great part of the 70's, though still Tusk catches five stars from allmusic

as my Summer Album # 1554



most Soulful songs:

THAT'S ALL FOR EVERYONE
by Lindsey Buckingham

OVER & OVER
by Christine McVie


most Imaginative songs:

BROWN EYES
by Christine McVie

SARA
by Stevie Nicks


most Amusing songs:

NOT THAT FUNNY
by Lindsey Buckingham

THE LEDGE (counting all your toes)
by Lindsey Buckingham


most Beautiful songs:

BEAUTIFUL CHILD
by Stevie Nicks

NEVER MAKE ME CRY
by Christine McVie


most Strong songs:

WHAT MAKES YOU THINK YOU'RE THE ONE?!
by Lindsey Buckingham

SISTERS OF THE MOON
by Stevie Nicks


most Sexy songs:

TUSK
by Lindsey Buckingham

THINK ABOUT ME
by Christine McVie


most Grounded songs:

SAVE ME A PLACE
by Lindsey Buckingham

THAT'S ENOUGH FOR ME
by Lindsey Buckingham




only thing I don't get at all is the title and package, maybe neither why Nicks has most things in the middle while McVie begins and ends - anyhow both women's melodies have grown better after I began years ago by just appreciating Buckingham's straight arrows

now almost every track feels fit for a double, which shall contain a litte bit more superficial and curious compositions, or even overmature and tired tunes = can't be expected to show same eternally fresh passion all the way


Sounds in my ears most similar to Cat Stevens, Jefferson Airplane, Mike Oldfield, Kirsty Maccoll, Elvis Costello, 10cc, Talking Heads, Todd Rundgren, Mamas & Papas, Son of a Plumber, Raj Montana Band, ABBA


(7) compositions

(5) instrumentations

(7) playin' feelin'

(5) lyrics (incl titles)

(6) variation

(4) synchronization

(1) cover picture

(5) historical importance

= 40


I now give 1-7 for each cathegory
where 3 is good and total possible 8 x 7 = 56 never exist(?)
